Episode Details

We're back to Eurovision 2026 national final season, and boy, is it a good one. Ukraine's Vidbir is here, and with it, a veritable wave of Eurovision royalty: Jamala, Zlata Ognevich, Jerry Heil, Ziferblat, Monokate... it's a veritable cornucopia of ESC talent. Jeremy likes it when things get just a little Jesus-y, Dimitry is exposed as a Ruslana simp, and Oscar's looking for Mr. Vel.
